    Tables for Different Counters in Japanese Numbers

    1. Counter for Money

    (yoen) for four yen, not (yonen).

    different pronunciations required for the highlighted numbers.

    pronunciations required for the highlighted numbers.
    7. Counter for Animals

    Counters for Animals

    The table above shows the Japanese counters for animals. Different counter words are
    used for big and small animals. Take note of the different pronunciations required for
    the highlighted numbers.

    8. Counter for Long and Round Objects

    Counter for Long and Round Objects

    9. Counter for Drinks

    10. Counter for Floor

    12. Counter for Small Objects

    Counter for Small Objects

    pronunciations required for the highlighted numbers.

    As you can see, in many cases you are required to pronounce differently for number 1, 3,
    6, 8, 10 and 100, etc. However the different pronunciations are not always fixed for
    these numbers. Therefore you will have to memorize them for different counters.

    After study them for some times, I am sure somehow you will know which number
    required different pronunciation for different counters.

    Special Japanese Numbers


    Special Japanese Number

    The table above shows another way of counting without using any counter which I
    mentioned earlier. However, you probably need to mention the counter somewhere in
    other sentences so that people know what you are referring to. Take note of the different
    pronunciations for number one to ten.
